The drivers aren't necessarily more dangerous. They might just be driving more dangerously with less traffic. It's easier to die going 80 on the freeway than if you're stuck in gridlock.
I think we can at least agree that the statement "the roads are safer" is false.

My individual odds of dying in an accident haven’t changed much. Safer or worse in some aggregate measure isn’t that useful to me today or tomorrow. Still gonna do as I do.
